Brewing different espresso mocha pot brewing skills

Mocha pots are becoming more and more common. Everyone feels good about this novel and good-looking coffee pot, and some people don't know how to use it at all, but buy it back as a pure decoration in the living room or wine cabinet because of its unique shape.

Step 1: prepare the filtered hot water, it is best to use the clean water filtered by the general household water filter to calculate the amount of water required by 30 mg per cup.

Step 2: usually do not want the brewed coffee to have coffee grounds left at the bottom of the cup. This is also a kind of coffee etiquette. In order to avoid the emergence of coffee grounds, we can prepare a piece of filter paper or filter cloth, according to the coffee container, draw the size of the container on the paper or cloth.

Step 3: cut out the circle just drawn, if it is a filter cloth. It is best to rinse slightly with water to avoid leaving bad cloth pulp in the coffee.

Step 4: pour the water into the kettle, pay attention to that the water cannot exceed the horizontal height of the outlet, otherwise the hot water will spray out with steam after heating, causing unnecessary danger.

Step 5: flatten the surface of the coffee particles with your hands, and then press down gently and horizontally with the decompression plate.

Step 6: lock the filter cover, put the water in according to the instructions of the machine, press the switch, and the steam begins to pass through the coffee particles.

Step 7: remove coffee particles from the edge of the coffee container, otherwise it will affect the service life of the white rubber gasket. The white gasket does not need to be separated from the upper pot in order to avoid accidental loss in cleaning.

Step 8: put the filter cloth on the pressed coffee container.

Step 9: put the coffee container containing coffee particles into the lower pot, then lock the upper pot, pay attention to the thread between the upper and lower pot, lock carefully. Put it on the heater and start heating.

Step 10: in the process of heating, you will hear a rapid hiss, which is the sound of steam rushing to the pot with coffee, once the sound changes to a rustling sound. It may mean that all the moisture in the pot has been turned into coffee. You can listen by experience, or you can open the lid directly (it doesn't matter, it won't affect the quality of the coffee). If you see that the steam hole has stopped steaming, it means that the extraction process has been completed. You're ready to enjoy this cup of hand-refined Italian coffee.

Secret-1: the amount of coffee particles can vary according to your preferences. Because the capacity of each mocha pot and the coffee container are too small, you need to try it several times. In order to find out the amount of coffee particles that suit your taste. If you like it thicker, you can fill the flattened space with a pressure reducing plate when filling the powder, and then gently press it again.

Secret-2: the size of filter cloth. Cannot be larger than the surface of the coffee particles, otherwise it will cause too much pressure. Steam will spill over.

Tip-3: the main function of the decompression plate is to put a small amount of coffee on the filter cloth when making a small amount of coffee in a larger mocha pot, which can easily control the number of cups and the quantity of coffee particles. It is used as the function of pressing bar here. Because the steam pressure produced by the mocha pot is relatively small, generally speaking, it is not like the Italian coffee maker that requires a special pressure bar.
